Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we developed a new immobilization method of protein onto the surface of silicone nitride. First, we successfully identified SIN-binding peptides from Elongation Factor Tu which was isolated from E. coli cell lysate. Especially, one of them showed the strongest binding affintiy towards the surface of SIN plate. By genetic fusion of SIN-tag to the C-termimus of single-chain Fv antibodies resulted in higher antigen-binding activity of scFv in adsorption state. Thus, the SIN-binding peptides developed in this study will be significantly useful for site-specific immobilization of recombinant antibody fragments such as scFvs in RIfS sensor.
